What should I pack when moving to Pune?
We asked people living in Pune to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Pune, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing that is appropriate for the hot and humid climate. Bring a few items of clothing that can be layered for cooler evenings. Make sure to bring a good pair of walking shoes, as well as a hat and sunglasses to protect you from the sun. Additionally, pack any necessary medications, toiletries, and personal items. It is also a good idea to bring a few items that will help you feel at home, such as photos, books, and music," said a member in Pune, India.

TV (Yeah, I know it's a different system (PAL not NTSC) but there are good converters and it wouldn't have mattered for our DVDs) and a good 40 inch TV is astonishingly expensive here. 2. Photo Printing Paper - strangely hard to find here. 3. Branston Pickle Left at home: 1. Our second computer 2. Coats 3. Wii (Unlike our computer and Playstation, the Wii transformer only works on 110 volts and I managed to blow it up by assuming it would work with 220 volts," remarked another expat who made the move to Pune, India.
